Astrology with Jo Mama
Hello my friends, hope you've been staying safe. Let’s turn our attention to the first sign of the Zodiac.
The main thing about Aries the Ram is that he hates not being in control. Aries poet Robert Frost even wrote his most famous work about his sadness that the only thing permanent in nature is change and that nothing “stay’s gold.” Aries singer Chaka Khan once claimed, “I’m every woman, it’s all inside me.” Like everyone else whose sign is Aries, Chaka Khan demands your respect and attention. Ignore the Chakas of this world and they will just get louder until you give up. In the mid 1990s Elton John furnished his husband, David Furnish, with a video camera and insisted he made a behind the scenes / warts and all documentary about his life on and off stage. The title of the film was, ‘Tantrums and Tiaras’. Sir Elton’s sign is Aries and like everyone else born between March 21 and April 20, he can't keep his plans or passions to himself, he’s determined, uncomplicated, moody, impulsive, aggressive, savage, and embarrassingly competitive. If you were to make a documentary about anyone born under this Fire sign (e.g. Lady Gaga, Hugh Hefner, Spike Milligan, Diana Ross, Vincent van Gogh, Mariah Carey etc). You could use the same ‘Tantrums and Tiaras’ title.
When Van Gogh invited his friend Paul Gauguin (a Gemini) to stay with him in the South of France, he painted some sunflowers in the guest room. It was a childlike, sweet, Aries thing to do. However when his friend arrived, the pair didn’t get on. Paul witnessed first hand that when Vincent wasn’t being sweet and childlike he tended to be competitive, moody, and rather aggressive.
The talented comedy actor Sarah Jessica Parker is married to the equally talented comedy actor Matthew Broderick. They are both Aries. Two Aries together makes for an incredibly intense relationship. The arguments they’ll have will be heated but secretly they’ll both enjoy it.
I have studied the stars on your behalves and concluded that 2020 will be a good year for Aries people everywhere. My main advice is: “Don’t be needy, be succeedy.” On the 11th of November Jupiter will transit to Capricorn, with Saturn already present in Capricorn, I believe this will mean excellent things will happen at work and give you a real lust for life. In the meantime, if you want to find out more about Vincent in the South of France and the South of London, why not watch this tremendous film made by Gordon Beswick and Harry Pye?
